INOCULATIONS WITH PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA (PGPR) STIMULATE ADVENTITIOUS ROOT FORMATION ON SEMI-HARDWOOD STEM CUTTINGS OF FICUS BENJAMINA L.
Özet
An attempt was made to induce rooting from cuttings of Ficus benjamina L. by plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) treatments under controlled conditions. Semi-hardwood cuttings of Ficus benjamina were used. Agrobacterium rubi (A1 and A18), Pseudomonas putida (BA-8), and Bacillus subtilus (BA-142) were used as rooting agents. The rooting percentage was 100% in all bacteria strain treatments while the lowest were observed in control (86.7%). Root length was greater when cuttings were treated with BA-142 and A-18 compared the other treatments. The lowest root length was obtained in the control. The fresh root weight varied from 0.60 g (A-1) to 2.29 g (BA-142) in experiment I (December 2013) and experiment II (July 2014), respectively. The highest new leaf number (1.44) was observed on cuttings treated with BA-142 followed by 1.26 in treatment BA-8. The results of this study suggest that Bacillus subtilus (BA-142) may possess great potential for promoting adventitious root formation in Ficus benjamina.
